2/5
"In a clear-cut case of arrested development, the film that crowns Luc Besson's career is a magical phantasmagoria for the kids, and a derivative mess for their parents."
Channel 4 Film
Anton Bitel
"It took me a few minutes to get used to the strange look of the Minimoy universe in 'Arthur and the Invisibles,' but I soon became enchanted with it."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Betty Jo Tucker
"Admirably blends animation and live-action and has a lot on offer for kids, though adults will probably yawn more than once at the predictable twists and turns of the plot."

"Highmore has been given a free pass from Besson to act his little heart out, and this gifted kid has decided to use the Dakota Fanning 3000 method of predictable, robotic child acting. It's disappointing to witness."

"...there's exceedingly little here to hold the interest of even the most patient adult."

"Luc Besson's
Arthur and the Invisibles
clears the smog left behind by the year's dubious family entertainments."

2/5
"With its Day-Glo colors and fast pace, this $80 million live action/animated film may be the first acid trip for kids."

2.5/4
"
Arthur and the Invisibles
has a story so psychedelic that each movie ticket purchased should also include a black light poster and some incense. Kids weaned on the likes of Pixar and
Shrek
won't know what to make of it."
Aisle Seat

"The underground adventures are an unfortunate mixture of po-mo snark and potty humor (some just plain pot humor as well)."

Nell Minow
2.5/5
"Several parts of the narrative don't gel, feeling designed simply to look cool or sound funny."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
C+
"...a cute and sassy little fantasy film that borrows from many sources (oft times forgoing originality for familiarity)."
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
C-
"... a stiff affair that mixes overripe live action and starchy CGI animation."
